Hod, Department of Science & Humanities (Dr. N Satheesh Kumar) addressed the First year A- Section (AIML) students on 24.11.2025 at 11am. The key points are 1. Attendance Issues • Consistent attendance is not just a rule but a requirement for your academic success. • The university mandates a minimum attendance percentage, and shortage of attendance will strictly affect your eligibility for the upcoming examinations. 2. Discipline and Academic Performance • Good discipline reflects in punctuality, classroom behaviour, timely submission of assignments, and active participation. • Academic performance is a direct outcome of dedication. 3. Certification Courses • In the current academic and professional environment, classroom knowledge alone is not always sufficient. • Industries today expect graduates to possess additional skills, practical exposure, and specialized training. • Certification courses play a major role in bridging this gap. 4. CIE marks • They contribute significantly to your final grade. • Study regularly, complete your assignments on time, participate sincerely in labs, and maintain good academic discipline. 5. Use of AI is a tool • AI can assist you in understanding difficult concepts, generating ideas, and improving your writing or coding. However, relying on AI to complete assignments, lab reports, project work, or exams is unacceptable. • Submitting AI-generated work as your own is treated as a violation of academic integrity. Consequences may include: - Reduction of marks - Rejection of assignments or projects - Loss of CIE marks • Responsible and ethical use is encouraged • We are not discouraging the use of AI. In fact, AI literacy is becoming increasingly important. You are encouraged to use AI for - Clarifying doubts - Practicing problem-solving - Getting feedback on your writing - Exploring concepts, but the final submission must be your own original work. We encourage all students to take responsibility for their learning and uphold the values of discipline, honesty, and consistent effort. Whether it is maintaining attendance, performing well in CIE, preparing for exams, or using AI tools responsibly, each of these aspects contributes to your overall growth and success.
